WongPartnership and Herbert Smith have been voted the best domestic and international law firms to work for in Singapore, according to ALB’s Employer of Choice 2010 survey.
The online survey was conducted between December 2009 and February 2010 among more than 20,000 lawyers in the Asia-Pacific and Gulf regions.
WongPartnership received close to 30% more votes than second-placed Drew & Napier. Third-placed TSMP was favoured in the ‘compensation and benefits’ categories while Rodyk & Davidson’s work/life balance initiatives saw it claim fourth spot. KhatttarWong, unranked in last year’s survey, polled well to clinch fifth spot.
The ‘international firm’ category in the Lion City was among the most hotly contested in this year’s survey. Less than three votes separated the top two firms, Herbert Smith and Ince & Co, with both polling equally well across all categories. Herbert Smith won out in the ‘work/life balance’ and ‘partnership prospects’ categories while Ince & Co was favoured in the ‘professional development and training’ and ‘compensation and benefits’ categories. Shearman & Sterling followed closely behind the two frontrunners but Norton Rose finished well off the pace in fourth place.
